    I just want to redo the last 10 years, but with the knowledge I have now. If not, F**** IT. I’m not going through that s***** again.

    Knowing in the moment what I know now, probably a lot of things. A LOT.

    Then again... I'm fine with who I am, and all those wrong things are a direct contribution to this.

    I don't think i would redo anything. My embarrassments have only taught me to be less...dumb.

    I could say I wouldn't have denied myself buying a lot of stuff, and I wouldn't have made money a priority, but here I am able to retire at 53 years old, so something good there too.

    I would have persevered and not dropped out of 9th grade
    first year Spanish class.

    I shouldn't have let that group of mean girls that sat behind me and constantly ridiculed end my Spanish studies.

    I was an A+ student and could have continued on and become fluent. I loved Spanish.

    It's not to late to learn, is it?

    No but my schedule is really screwy because of shift work. Maybe someday though.

    If you haven't lost the basics, I'm sure a few hours of study a week will get you to where you want to be. Maybe it's time for a vacation somewhere in south america... you can practice there... for example...una cerveza por favor... ;):)

    That's a thought :)

    Or spend weekends with me.....we can disagree with absolutely everything all weekend.....but in Spanish

    I kinda like spend 7 days and nights a week doing that with you here. Unless we're discussing chicken wings, Fabio, CrossFit, woo appreciation, NY pizza or provocateurette vegetarians. Or love.

    I would have gone back and went on a week's vacation with a friend and given him the hot air balloon ride trip that I promised him for his birthday. I got busy at work and we put it off. He died a month later.

    I can't agree more. The long hours, the missed shared times with loved ones that can never be replaced and for what? A sense of personal achievement, commitment to something or an unrealistic sense of responsibility. "Grant me the serenity..."

    Too many times I compromised myself for popularity, money, or moments of fun.

    Would have fought that one bully kid in 7th grade.

    Not got into alcohol, drugs, and some seedy stuff.

    Made better choices in friends.

    Made much better relationship choices.

    This echos out to the depths of my soul. I was severely bullied in school for reasons beyond my control. Such as my son is experiencing right now, but for different reasons. I relive my pain on an even deeper level watching my son go through it. It makes me wonder sometimes if those bullies as adults think about the cause and effect of their behaviour.

    I'd like to think that most kids who bully grow up living life as it is with all different kinds of hardships that can come into one's life that they can find a sense of compassion and redemption. I have a feeling that your own personal strength that was gained by going through it has given you a unique knowledge of how to guide him through the rough spots. And to those who haven't been enlightened over the years, all I can say is "Karma" and this gypsy's curse - May "x" experience a lifetime of severe rectal itch and make them scratch themselves bloody!

    I definitely have felt this way on many occasions within my life and still have my moments. But I’ve come to the conclusion that there are several reasons why I would never go back in time to change things. All those painful failures I went through define the person I am today. Because I have failed, I am compassionate. Because I have failed, I am understanding. Because I have failed, I am more emotionally aware. Because I have failed, I’ve gained wisdom and understanding. Most thankfully because I have failed, I understand the values and beliefs of the things that matter in life. I’m grateful for my imperfections. As well as to those that have hurt me because they helped me become a stronger person.

    This is all very true. I am who I am because of mistakes that I have made. I have lost so much, but in losing I have gained many things. It's easy to say that I would want to start over, but if the opportunity arose through some magical genie force, I think I would decline. If not for the mistakes I've made, I would not have any of the beautiful children that I couldn't do without.
